Putting them two together is basically what Ford did with the Sporttrac.

In pretty much every way, I believe so. The '95-up explorer had SLA up front, where the Ranger retained TIB/TTB through '97, so that will be different. It's an interesting idea, can you tell a little more about what you have in mind?
